Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of rental property in Romeoville subject to § 153.19 are generally expected to consult the current fee schedule in Chapter 43 before submitting a permit application. Payment is due to the Village Clerk at the time of application, so compliant operators typically confirm the current fee amount in advance, as the schedule may have been amended. Keeping records of fee payments helps demonstrate timely compliance with the inspection permit process.

Section 153.19 of Romeoville's rental property inspection chapter establishes that landlords are responsible for obtaining and paying for inspection permits, not tenants. Tenants who believe a landlord has failed to obtain a required permit may wish to contact the Village of Romeoville directly to inquire about the status of a property's inspection permit. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Romeoville's local ordinances can help residents understand how the permit requirement may relate to habitability or other tenant protections.
